In Trump ballot case, U.S. Supreme Court could limit state’s authority to decide eligibility

Justices appeared skeptical of barring Donald Trump during oral arguments over 14th Amendment

Jason Murray, the lead attorney for the Colorado voters speaks to members of the media in front of the US Supreme Court following oral arguments on former US President Donald Trump challenge to a Colorado court ruling barring him from the State’s primary ballot based on the 14th Amendment’s “insurrection ban” in Washington, DC, on February 8, 2024. The Court began a high-stakes hearing on whether Trump is ineligible to appear on the Republican presidential primary ballot in the state of Colorado because he engaged in an insurrection, the January 6, 2021, assault on the US Capitol by his supporters.
